This atoll lies in the northwest section of the Chagos Archipelago, part of the British Indian Ocean Territory. The atoll consists of about 30 islets and reefs.
Most of the permitted anchorages provide less protection than those found in the Salomon Islands.
Useful Navigation Notes can be found in this report by SY YOLO, although it was posted a few years ago. Information on approved mooring sites can be found on the BIOT Administration website - See: Guidance for Yachts
